Sun Street, Biggleswade, SG18

This is a rare find, an impressive family home that’s less than 10 minutes walk from Biggleswade High Street and station, ideal for commuters.

If you’re looking for the safety, security and space offered by gated grounds you don’t often find them so close to the town centre. Indeed Sun Street is highly unusual, offering discerning families the space and luxurious style normally only found in Biggleswade’s surrounding villages.

But if you need to be close to the town centre or the station and don’t want the hassle of driving in and parking up, this could be the ideal solution where convenience doesn’t mean compromising on quality.

The impressive, detached property sits on a large 7400 sq feet (690m2) plot. It’s very hard to miss as you travel down Sun Street, set back from the road behind automatic solid oak gates. The in & out resin driveway can accommodate numerous vehicles along with a beautiful water fountain.

This spacious and versatile family home has a ground floor layout that’s perfect for spending time together as a family and outdoor space ideal for entertaining.

There’s no shortage of reception rooms, with a large lounge, a separate bay-fronted dining room and a family room which could instead be used as a ground floor (4th) bedroom.

The kitchen has plenty of space in the stylish fitted units, high quality integrated appliances, a range style cooker and a filtered water/instant hot water tap.

There isn’t room to sit and eat in the kitchen but with the dining room being next to it, there is the potential to open up both rooms to create a more sociable space.

Indeed, there is the potential to make more significant alterations, with planning permission secured to add a side extension which could transform the living accommodation.

Upstairs has three bedrooms, the large master bedroom being particularly impressive as this has a dressing area with fitted wardrobes and a stylish ensuite shower room.

The luxurious four-piece family bathroom wouldn’t look out of place in a boutique hotel or spa.

If you’re a sociable family that loves to throw a party, you’ll love the back garden. It’s been meticulously landscaped to the highest standard, with an artificial lawn, a choice of patio seating areas and even a purpose-built kennel at the rear.

The property has been designed with energy efficiency in mind, from the LED lighting throughout the home to the ECO boiler and a Hive smart system that puts you in full control.

The safety and security of your family are also paramount, with the electric oak gates, CCTV and an alarm system installed

You would normally expect to find such a luxurious property in one of the outlying villages, but it really is only 300m (0.2 miles) from the High Street.

It’s a pleasant 5 minute stroll down to the shops and only another 5 minutes on to the station, where you can catch a train to St Pancras that on average only takes around three quarters of an hour.

This will make a huge difference to your commute if you regularly need to head into Central London - time it right and it could take under an hour from leaving home to stepping onto the platform at St Pancras!

It’s good to know that you have a choice of excellent schools nearby. St Andrew's CofE VC Lower School is closest, a “Good” school that’s less than 3 minutes’ walk away.

Older children have a little further to travel to Stratton Upper School (another “Good” school) but it’s still less than a 20-minute walk away or a 5 minute bike ride.

It may be a cliché, but this really is “a rare opportunity to purchase” such an impressive, luxurious family home so close to the town centre.

Comments from the seller:
"I love the home because of its privacy, space and location.
It's safe for the family to play at the rear or front of house, it's amazing to drink your coffee in the morning sitting in the porch viewing the natural surroundings and fountain as the waterfall gives you a sense of tranquillity.
The garden and front with its perfect landscape makes it a safe environment and a great space to entertain families and friends.
The large gated driveways also makes it easier for families and friends to park without the hassle of finding off street parking a rear luxury.
A trip to London is hassle free with the advantage of a 5 minute walk not having to worry about parking or getting a taxi, everything is at an easy reach and a 5 minute walk, the Sainsburys superstore, town with its shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants.
Everybody in the town is friendly and inviting and it is a wonderfully community with great individuals and families.
A truly wonderful house and town that offers me many options and ease to plan."
